Chapter 3 Retention 3
At this point, Bai Jinyu had to step out of his position. She solemnly bowed to the emperor and queen in the center of the main hall, and after the ceremony was completed, she used her eyes to patrol the hall.
She didn't dare to take it lightly, now everyone is watching, and many of the people here are women and children, she wants to be perfectly excused, and the reason she says must not only be convincing, but more importantly, it must be simple and understandable.
Suddenly, a jade painting that I don't know who had presented it came into Bai Jinyu's eyes. It is a picture made of hundreds of jade pieces, and the content of the painting is the very common "pine crane prolonging the year".
Bai Jinyu smiled faithfully, pointed to the jade painting leaning on the imperial pillar, and said: "Please look at the "Pine Crane Longevity Map" by the Holy Lord and the Queen, if it is wrong to say that the "Lotus Appreciation Under the Moon" of Princess Li of Wei is not consistent with the truth, then this "Pine Crane Longevity Map" is not even more wrong?" ”
Feng Hua asked, "Oh? This 'pine crane prolonging life' is a common theme for birthday celebrations since ancient times, so what's wrong? ”
Bai Jinyu shook his palm behind him, but said steadily: "The green pine is born in the alpine soil, but the white crane likes to inhabit the swamp, the white crane in this world will never go to Panasonic to linger, and the 'pine crane prolonging life' is also a picture that will never exist in reality." ”
"But the green pine is evergreen, and the white crane is born noble, and the two imply beauty, so they have always been cited as a blessing for thousands of years."
She brought back the topic and said: "It can be seen that painting does not have to pursue truth, now it is just a picture of "Lotus Appreciation under the Moon", if you draw a birthday star with long eyebrows...... There is no such thing in the world! ”
Bai Jinyu looked at Li with a smile again, and said softly: "The name of the queen's mother Aihe is well known to the world, and the good moon means happiness. Moreover, this brush is skillful, the color is exquisite, and the picture on the table does not make up for the shortcomings in reality, if you understand it this way, it is okay to say that it is a masterpiece! ”
Bai Jinyu's explanation was reasonable, and it can be said that he set things right for this "Lotus Appreciation Under the Moon" in an instant, and the palace suddenly opened up, and there were endless responders.
"The concubine and sister-in-law are clear, they are really well-informed!" The young man behind Feng Chen was full of admiration, and climbed on Feng Chen's shoulder to say this to him.
Feng Chen looked at the confident figure standing in the main hall, and said silently for a long time, waiting for the young man to retreat, and then he replied to himself: "Hmm." ”
Then, he stood up.
Standing up in the middle of a group of people sitting low, everyone's eyes were instantly attracted by Feng Chen. His Royal Highness the King of Jin has never been indisputable, and there are absolutely not many occasions for him to spontaneously walk in front of people.
People's eyes chased Feng Chen, like chasing the bright moon streamer, until he stopped at Bai Jinyu's side.
As soon as Feng Chen approached, Bai Jinyu faintly felt that he was even more nervous than just now, and his feet moved a step involuntarily.
But to get rid of this nervousness, she felt a little relieved, and said in her heart that he was still a little responsible compared to King Wei, who stood by and watched from his concubine.
Feng Chen bowed to the hall one by one, and after all the etiquette stopped, he arched his hand quite formally: "The hysteria of the insiders has been bad recently, and the words are missing, and I hope the emperor, the queen, and the concubine will forgive me!" ”
"Hysteria......" was like a basin of cold water pouring down head-on, Bai Jinyu looked inexplicable, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was swept away by Feng Chen's eyes.
"King Jin is serious, and what my brother and sister said can justify themselves, which sounds reasonable." Feng Hua on the throne was not annoyed.
The queen also smiled softly at Bai Jinyu, and said peacefully: "My younger brother and sister have always been outstanding, and what they say is often refreshing. I heard that you have been in poor health for a long time, and you haven't gotten better yet? ”
Bai Jinyu was speechless, she had just seen Su Lihua last night, and she hadn't seen her sick, and most of this 'long-standing' condition was pressed on her head by Feng Chen.
Bai Jinyu was noncommittal, speechless about the relationship between Fengchen and Su Lihua.
"Since the illness is not cured, we must find more good doctors and take medicine on time." Wu Guifei frowned and looked concerned, and asked the emperor to ask the imperial doctor in the palace to diagnose Princess Jin.
Feng Hua was very pleased, and immediately sent an edict to the imperial doctor in the palace to visit Bai Jinyu recently, and the queen also rewarded Bai Jinyu with a bunch of precious medicinal supplements.
"By the way, I don't know what kind of congratulatory gift Princess Jin prepared for the queen?" Wu Guifei suddenly changed the topic, showing a very expectant and curious face.
As soon as this sentence came out, the curiosity of the audience rushed to Bai Jinyu, and Bai Jinyu's mind was empty.
After a moment of silence, Feng Chen's eyes turned away, and he lowered his voice and asked, "You...... Have it? ”
Bai Jinyu woke up and looked at Fengchen, his gaze had been calm before, but at this moment, he seemed to be faintly worried.
Think about it, at this time, if you make a fool of yourself, the lintel of the Jin Wangfu will be dull for at least a year.
"The auspicious birthday of the queen mother is of course very special." Bai Jinyu said with a smile.
Feng Chen's thin lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but he finally held back.
Hearing this, the queen in the palace became more interested, leaned over and urged: "Princess Jin's gift must be different, quickly present it to the palace to see." ”
"What is this congratulatory gift...... Bai Jinyu bit his lip, a little embarrassed: "It's not here yet." ”
Bai Jinyu said it bluntly, and everyone who heard it was stunned, and they all whispered and talked about it, saying that this Jin princess was really sick.
Feng Chen said: "Where is it?" I'll pick it up. The voice was slightly low, and it was very reassuring to hear it.
Bai Jinyu shook his head at him, turned back to the hall and said, "To offer this congratulatory gift, the concubine wants to borrow two copper and iron scabbards from the saint first. ”
As soon as the words fell, the voices of discussion in the hall were even more widespread.
"Why did Princess Jin act so perversely? I have never heard of anyone giving such a gift. ”
"Oh, didn't King Jin just say that she had hysteria!"
"Is she playing tricks or is it real?"
"I don't know."
……
Feng Hua in the palace was also surprised, and at the same time he was also very interested, he immediately ordered the eunuch in charge to take two sword scabbards and handed them to Bai Jinyu.
These two scabbards are made of fine iron, the weight is not low, the whole scabbard body is beautifully decorated, and the sheath mouth is inlaid with white jade, which is known at a glance to be the scabbard used to hide the famous sword.
After looking at the two scabbards with great satisfaction, Bai Jinyu held a sheath in his left and right hands and struck each other hard.
"硿—" An unpleasant metal crash suddenly erupted.
The voice was louder than Bai Jinyu expected, and she secretly admired with satisfaction: This is the royal thing, and it is really beyond the reach of a hundred Cuizhu's hidden swords!
When Bai Jinyu was rejoicing, this knocking sound could shock the royal family members sitting in the front row. The sound of striking iron was rough and irritable, and there was no beauty in the rhythm, and some women couldn't help but cover their ears at that moment.
But Bai Jinyu didn't notice these reactions at all, and Wu Zi tapped the scabbard a few more times, and carefully checked the vibration and sound of the scabbard.
"There it is!" When she finally found the voice she needed, she realized that she seemed to have offended the audience. There was only a crowd pointing at her, and the Yinghua Hall became a large-scale neuropathy diagnosis site.
Bai Jinyu realized his faux pas, and peeked at Feng Chen uneasily, but fortunately, he still had the usual posture of silence. Bai Jinyu's heart calmed down, compared with Feng Chenyi, the person who sat down seemed too impatient and self-cultivated.
"Shhhhhh But Bai Jinyu couldn't take care of them anymore, and began to pick up two scabbards and hit them.
While striking, she walked slowly through the hall, and the sound of percussion in her hand gradually evolved from a chaotic array to a rhythmic sound of "硿, 硿".
Bai Jinyu's behavior looks so weird! But everyone saw that she looked serious, rigorous and serious, so they had to hold their breath and look at it intently.
The main hall was silent, only Bai Jinyu, who was dressed in purple, held two sword scabbards and kept knocking, and the sound of short and long beatings continued to echo in the hall. The eyes of His Royal Highness followed her figure step by step,
The time of half a pillar of incense passed, and one or two old men in the field were no longer very bored, and they were about to shoot the case, but they were glanced at by Feng Chen, and they sat back in fear.
The dull thumping continued.
"硿, 硿!"
"硿硿, 硿硿!"
……
Suddenly, a loud long roar broke the silence, and suddenly there was a strong wind blowing in the hall, and before everyone could wake up, they saw a touch of beautiful emerald green soaring from the bright and dazzling temple door, breaking through the air, and finally stopping steadily in the center of the main hall!
The people were dizzy and looked fixedly,
The fluttering figure turned out to be a majestic golden green peacock!
This peacock has a curved neck, dense green feathers, bright eyes, and a graceful and noble long tail, full of bright and extraordinary light.
Suddenly, the hall shook violently, everyone was surprised, and the emperor and queen were even more overjoyed, clasping hands and admiring, as if this was an auspicious divine bird descending from the nine heavens.
Bai Jinyu didn't stop there, she faced the peacock and continued to hit the scabbard one after another. The peacock was even more strange, and he followed Bai Jinyu step by step, as if he recognized her as the master.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Bai Jinyu recited aloud while tapping: "Nijing Weixia welcomes the Queen Mother, and the flying phoenix and jade phoenix enter Yaotai!" ”
The sound stopped, and the peacock jumped lightly, jumped up the imperial steps, and elegantly unfolded its tail garden golden feather in the direction of the emperor and queen! The fully opened feather screen was like a blue and green gemstone inlaid on a gray brocade, so beautiful and brilliant that people were reluctant to blink their eyes.
At this moment, the sound of the palace beating the case has been like a wave, and people are rushing forward to see the demeanor of this phoenix in the world!
Bai Jinyu was also considerate of everyone, she occasionally struck the scabbard of the sword, leading the green peacock to appear in the hall before and after, left and right, satisfying the viewing of every prescription position. In the uproar of the crowd, the young man who had spoken to Fengchen before clapped his hands very happily and shouted happily with excitement.
Bai Jinyu was secretly glad that he had learned this hand in his early years.
Just now, she was worried about where to go to find congratulatory gifts, and suddenly remembered that not far from this Yinghua Palace was the Imperial Garden, which raised a lot of rare and exotic beasts, so she remembered to use this method, hoping to at least attract some magpies or something.
It's just that I didn't expect to attract such a big colorful peacock in the end!
Bai Jinyu looked at Feng Chen with joy, thinking that he could see his proud expression, but Feng Chen's face was only a little calmer, and his eyes were more solemn with unknown meaning.
This expression really made Bai Jinyu unhappy, and she was about to mumble a few words to him. Suddenly, she thought that she was now Su Lihua, and Su Lihua would not talk and act like her!
So, she slowly closed her mouth in Fengchen's gaze very unnaturally.
